Helen is drowning in the Cow Pat of Destiny. Please SWs - when will it be curtains for Rob?

[PseudoBadger]

Come on Kirsty!

I thought it sounded like a seizure but it was very muffled and I was doing noisy cooking!

I just assumed she'd fainted, but it's really difficult to tell. Is there a word for cliffhanger-by-unattributable sound?

I am always hoping for new ways for Rob to be found out, so assuming she did faint, I'd hope someone would call an ambulance to be on the safe side and that someone in hospital would notice all was not well. However, I'm sure that won't happen because my ideas to resolve it all sooner rather than later have nothing to do with how the plot actually works out.

The bit with Henry was hideous - the violent spite behind it all was terrible. And the bit where he was about to tell Pat about the whole thing.

So that's the end of Helen working at the shop ...

Which either means she'll have more time to see Kirsty or that Rob, who can't be in two places at once, will have to stay home to keep her under constant surveillance. So they'd lose their income.

De-lurking...
Definitely sounded like a feint to me. Worst episode yet! Poor Henry, poor Helen...come on Kirsty, we're counting on you!

faint

So cleverly manipulative of knob to upset Henry and then priming him to put a guilt trip on Hellin. Then made it look as though it was Henry's idea to 'hate' mummy. She won't dare try to have another day out again.

But Jolene saw it and Jolene is nobody's fool. I think things will start to unravel for Rob soon.

I bloody hope so!

Humph. Just listened again and I think maybe she just flounced out rather than killing him with an overweight yogurt pot.

Haven't listened yet - but if it sounded like a convulsion her PE may have made a sudden tragic re-appearance

Ah, you all have much better dramatic ideas than I do!

but she only saw a midwife a few days ago - would it come on that quickly?

So it was that Sam on the New Zealand trip.

Who says she saw the midwife? We didn't hear it.

true - i had a mw visit at the same time as my scan. Would a scan show signs of PE?

Still find it really irritating that all mw care seems to have disappeared

Because of my PE in first pg with my second I took aspirin, had Doppler and growth scans and more regular MW appts. No research on actual high risk pregnancy clearly....

It sounded like she was protesting something, I thought rob grabbed her and maybe she yanked herself away or maybe she fainted?

I've listened to The Archers for 40 odd years. This has to be one of the most far-fetched storylines ever. More unlikely than Nigel's plummet. Surely any sane woman would tell him to shove it. And Pat used to really dislike Rob when he first started seeing Helen. How come she now thinks he's Husband of the Year? It doesn't stack up.

I thought it sounded like a seizure. Is that a sign of PE?

Can stress trigger PE?

Listened late. Not sure what to make of the ending. It didn't sound like a body fell on the floor so maybe she knocked the till over and ran out. There was a gagging sound just before though.
It was unforgivable telling Henry she lied and getting him to say poor Daddy.

Thought I heard H say 'Rob you're hurting...' just before whatever-it-was??

Or is my mind filling stuff in for me again?

I thought it sounded like she'd collapsed. I don't think she went to the midwife appointment. If she is starving herself then she could well have ketones in her urine which the midwife would have picked up straight away.

When Rob shouted "Helen!" at the end it sounded as if he was angry because she was storming off, rather than an exclamation that she's collapsed.
He really is hateful.

It was a scan, not a MW appointment though. I think.

I've listened to it about 4 times (I know! I blame the 20 second rewind button on the iplayer radio app on my phone!) and it sounds like she's saying "Rob you're hur..." and then collapsed.
